Inpatient PPS diagnosis 2017 exclusions
Any facility people? Inpatient PPS I’m trying to determine if all of those old diagnosis code exclusions will also be divided up into principal and secondary diagnoses in 2017, because currently they are only for secondary. The proposed Tables can be confusing (6A-6M1; 6G.1, 6G.2, 6H.1 and 6H.2). MS-DRG V34
